USB controllers installation
Installation of printer's controllers ends with establishing a virtual
COM port to facilitate communication with a computer via USB. This
is an automatic process upon connecting the printer to a computer.
The following is an example of typical controllers' installation in
Windows 7 - this process can differ depending on configuration
options and operating system version.
Upon connecting the printer using the USB cable to a computer, the
operational system automatically detects new devices and starts to
install controllers.
By clicking on the installer's icon on the taskbar, progress is visible.
As a result of a properly finished installation of USB controllers, virtual
COM port will be developed.
Information about the port features also in the Manager of system's
devices, in the Port (COM and LPT) position.
